Abstract (en)

A composition estimation target peak is selected from a mass spectrum of a sample, and a group of measured isotope peaks related to the composition estimation target peak is selected. A composition candidate for the sample is estimated based on the composition estimation target peak. A distribution of theoretical isotope peaks corresponding to the composition candidate is calculated. Presence or absence of an adduct hydrogen ion or a desorbed hydrogen ion in the sample is determined using an abundance ratio between the relative intensity of an isotope peak (e.g. C-13 peak) and the relative intensity of a protonated ion [M+H]+, wherein the measured isotope peak includes relative intensities of both the isotope peak and the protonated ion. Said abundance ratio is calculated based on a first mass defect difference between isotopes in a distribution of the measured isotope peaks, a second mass defect difference between isotopes in the distribution of the theoretical isotope peak (e.g. 0.00336 Da for C-13) and the mass defect of a hydrogen atom (0.00783 Da).
